is reached. This script will pull those images retreived on the initial page load, but at the moment
it cannot retrieve the additional images.

Installation

You can use pip/PyPI, which will automatically resolve all dependencies:

pip install unsplash-download

To install unsplash-download you can also clone the repo and install it via
setup.py:

After that you should be able to use the unsplash_download command from
your command line.

The featured collections can be retrieved using

‘unsplash_download [output_location_of_choice] [‘collections’ by default, this is optional] [starting index, featured collections start at ‘1’] [end index, currently ‘126’ as of 28 October 2016, this will change over time]’

For example:

unsplash_download /unsplash_output 1 126

The other collections should be able to be retrieved using minimum index greater than 126,
and a maximum index of something around 270000.

It should be noted that not every index is used, which is why the script doesn’t exit on
each html error.

Also, 270000 is close to the maximum encountered index, so if a higher index is found,
use that in your command.

It should be noted that these images are not small when downloaded in large batches
(the 116 featured collections are 3.14GB altogether), so rather run the index range as
that of 50 or 100, for example:

‘unsplash_download <output_location_of_choice> 150 250’

This is especially important if you are running on a weaker or intermittant internet connection.
